Famag Forstner Bits – Better By the Set!

Bormax 2.0 forstner bits from Famag are made in Germany of high-quality alloy tool steel with a black oxide finish that provides superior corrosion resistance. Unlike traditional forstner bits with only two scoring lips, Bormax 2.0 forstner bits feature waveform design bodies that reduce friction and create multiple scoring cutters for cleaner, cooler cuts and extended bit life. The two main cutting edges feature a staggered chip breaker profile that produces narrow shavings for unparalleled chip ejection in even the deepest holes. The optimized center spur ensures accurate wander free drilling in both angled and overlapping hole. Each bit features a hex shank that won't slip in your chuck making them ideal for handheld, drill press, and lathe boring applications. All together the Bormax 2.0 Forstner bits require less power to drive and can be run at higher RPM for faster drilling without fear of burning in Softwood, hardwoods, particleboard, melamine, and MDF. Choose the set that best fits your needs. All Bormax 2.0 Forstner bits measure 3-1/2" in overall length.

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Claire V. ★★★★★

The black oxide finish is already holding up great after drilling through some rough-cut walnut. Cuts are incredibly clean and the bits barely wander on entry.

Michael M. ★★★★★

Bored clean holes in oak and cherry with zero tear-out, even on the end grain. The 16 sizes cover everything from hinge mortises to dowel work, and the steel still feels razor sharp after a full weekend of cabinet doors.

Nicholas N. ★★★★★

The black oxide coating has held up perfectly through a few months of drilling oak and maple without any rust spots. Clean, tear-free holes every time, and the set covers every size I've needed so far.
